People v. Bennett

Opinion of the Court

—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (LaCava, J.), rendered January 13, 1995, convicting him of robbery in the first degree (two counts) and robbery in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

The sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).

*417The defendant’s remaining contentions are without merit. Mangano, P. J., Rosenblatt, Copertino and Krausman, JJ., concur.
